Pizza Casserole


  • Author: Mince Republic
  • Prep Time: 10 mins
  • Cook Time: 30 mins
  • Total Time: 40 mins
  • Yield: 4-6 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 bag cauliflower
  • (optional) 1/2 cup diced or shredded broccoli, cabbage or spinach
  • 1/2 yellow onion
  • 2 pimentos
  • 2 tbsp chopped fresh basil
  • 1/21 cup mozzarella cheese (depends on how cheesy you like it!)
  • 2 tbsp cream cheese
  • 1/21 cup pepperoni
  • 1/4 cup basil pesto
  • 3 slices bacon, chopped into pieces
  • (optional) For topping: thinly sliced tomato or bell pepper

Instructions

  1. In a pan over medium heat, cook bacon pieces until done to your liking. I like mine a little crispy so this takes about 7 minutes or so. Drain bacon on a paper towel.
  2. Wipe out bacon grease from pan, leaving about 1 tbsp left in the pan. Add in onion and cook for 3-5 minutes until starting to turn translucent. Add in riced cauliflower and broccoli, cabbage or spinach if using.
  3. The cooking time will vary depending what vegetable you chose (if any) but just cook it until it’s done the way you like. I usually use cut up broccoli and will cook it for 3-4 minutes.
  4. Add in cream cheese and allow to melt. Stir in pimentos or peppers (if using). Stir bacon back in. Add in basil pesto and give another good stir.
  5. Turn off heat and transfer mixture to a baking dish (I used 8×8). Spread evenly.
  6. If you want, you can add some pepperoni slices and stir in now, otherwise just use a topper.
  7. Top with mozzarella cheese and pepperoni. If using, top with thinly sliced tomato or bell pepper. A few slices goes a long way.
  8. Cook at 400 degrees for 20 minutes until cheese has melted. If you want, you can put under the broiler for the last 5 minutes to get a nice golden brown. Garnish with fresh basil.
